Who can study an apprenticeship?
Current and new employees can study for an apprenticeship, and as long as they’re over the age of 16, there is no upper age limit. In fact, the average age of an apprentice currently studying at BGU is 43! Apprenticeships can benefit anyone, whatever stage of life they’re in.
To enrol as an apprentice, you need to currently complete at least 50% of your working hours in England and have the drive to develop new knowledge, skills, and behaviours. Typically, apprentices work at least 30 hours a week, but working less should not be considered a barrier to your studying.
The best thing about the BGU apprenticeship was meeting mature students from different industries, discussions that followed, and mix of theoretical and practical learning.
